TranslateParents are you looking for a very rewarding way to volunteer for your school’s community? If so, please consider making a difference in a student’s life by helping them develop early reading skills.
Last year this program ran at Hawthorne and helped 14 Grade One students to improve their reading strategies and become comfortable, more fluent readers. Volunteers read 1:1 with their assigned student for thirty minute sessions approximately three to five times per week. Word games and leveled readers are filed and available for you to choose from and together we would create a reading kit appropriate for your student’s interests. We find that many Grade One students just need a little boost of support (possibly just one 9-week session) to get them up to speed.

Let’s get this terrific program up and running!
